Hello everybody!

It's been quite a while since I've been active on DeviantArt but I'm back now - I'll try to reply to my messages halfway timely now. I feel a bit guilty because you guys keep supporting me with comments, faves, watches, llamas and donations. Thank you so much for that, it is highly appreciated! Even though I don't reply timely I

always

read my messages.
I am just so grateful that *
CherryblueOrange showed this website to me - I met amazing people, made friends and found inspiring artists.
DeviantArt and the people I met there have made my life much more beautiful.

And now to my BIG SURPRISE: Something AMAZING has happened!

I'm one of the winners of a competition called "The European Parliament - why should I care". (

[link]). People (age 16 - 30) from all European countries (well, countries that are part of the European Union, including Croatia) took part in it and only 20 people were chosen as winners.
AND I AM ONE OF THEM! I was sooo happy when I found out - and I have to admit that I am quite proud of myself (and so were my parents. And my English teacher, she kept smiling at me hehe

)
I'm probably going to upload my essay (the task was to write an essay) on DA so you guys can read it. If you want to.

The price is a all-expenses-covered trip to Brussels in summer. I really look forward to that!

I can't wait to meet the other winners, read their essays and exchange views. OMG I'm so happy - I still can't believe it.
This really will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience - I'm excited and also a bit nervous^^
My school's also going to make an exhibition about the European Union and my essay will be displayed there. And there are going to be articles about me in some local newspapers.

I'm currently quite busy with school, not only because of all the tests and exams but also because it seems to me that I'm away from home quite often so I don't have the time to study...
From Sunday to Tuesday I'll be in a monastery with school, on Wednesday I'll sit a big Spanish test and on Thursday I'll travel to Lower Austria to a so-called "Students Congress". Sunday afternoon I'll come home and start studying for German. (I'll have to start studying for Latin and Spanish tomorrow - no, wait, it's past midnight. Today.)
This Wednesday I'll probably get all the information I need to organise everything for my visit to Spain in summer. I'll try to do this as quickly as possible, so I can start planning Linde's (~
LinsDrawn) visit to Austria in summer.
Anyway: In about three weeks time the really stressful things will (hopefully) be over so I can focus on drawing again. I wish I had more time to draw now but I simply don't. Maybe I'll be able to draw while I'm in the monastery.

Oh, and I'm currently into Pokémon again. I recently bought Pokémon White 2 and I love it hehehe^^
Once a pokéfan, always a pokéfan I guess^^
I hope you guys are having a good time! Enjoy springtime, everybody!
